  • In phase I and II multinational trials, favorable results have been observed regarding PSA kinetics modulation
  • The organic structure of ODM-201 seems to cause the agent to have a much lower penetration through the blood-brain barrier
  • The efficacy of ODM-201 is being measured in terms of its impact on radiographic disease, PSA, and the androgen receptor
  • ODM-201 has been studied in patients prior to and following chemotherapy, as well as in patients who have and have not received abiraterone
  • Additional trials are being planned to analyze safety, efficacy, and tolerability
  • ODM-201 will be studied in a large trial of non-metastatic patients
